I am so excited! When I flipped my calendar to look at February, it reminded me of how many fun things we have planned! I think it will help to make spring get here more quickly to know that our February will be filled with fun stuff. I heard this morning on the news that our 30 year average of snow is 71.9 inches for this time of year. We already have 92 inches so far this winter- 20 inches above average!!!!! And we are just beginning February???? UGH! I think last year's total was around 107 inches. The weather lady said they are predicting a season total of 120 this year. Nice- only 28 inches of snow left to fall! haha
This weekend we will lay low. The Boeve girls are spending the night tonight; Ryan and I are going out on a date tomorrow night (woo hoo!); Sunday is the SuperBowl. Next weekend we are going to GR to dinner and Dr. Grins with a group of friends. I can't wait to laugh, laugh and laugh some more! The next weekend brings us to another night with friends- pizza and ice skating, and my parents are coming that weekend as well!!!! Yippee!!!! My mom is coming for a whole week and my dad is coming the 2nd half of the week. That last weekend they are here, we will go to Four Winds Casino. We went last year (was that last year or the year before?) and had so much fun. Ryan and I, nor my parents are gamblers, but it was a fun hotel, and it had a great arcade where we spent most of our time. And a weekend away is great anywhere, don't you agree? And finally the last weekend in February is our annual trip to a water park. This year we are going to Safari Joe's- much closer, and we found it cheaper than Great Wolf Lodge so we are going to give it a try. Hopefully it will be as nice- it looks it from their website. CANNOT wait for the fun times ahead!!!! I am hoping winter will be long behind us come March, but I'm not keeping my fingers crossed! But hey, now that I think about it, March has some fun stuff to look forward to as well.
I have been in a cooking/baking mode these last few weeks. I love to cook anytime, but with Ryan's work schedule, he is not ever home for dinner. So I have found myself not cooking big meals for just me and the kids. But these last few weeks, I have been a little stir crazy with not much to do, so I have cooked and baked. I discovered some new yummy recipes that I"ll definitely be making again. I have already made dinner for tonight, dessert too, and now just have to cook it.
Off to clean a bit before the boys get home...

You do have lots of fun stuff planned! Hopefully this winter is over soon, I'm tired of it as well. NO MORE SNOW!!!!!
Our snow fall is rediculous, I'm sick of it! I'm sure you will ahve lots of great times in February, but I know your most looking forward to the first weekend in March... way more fun than any of that other stuff! ;) Thanks!
Where is this indoor water park that you're going too? I would love to do something like that with the kids but I don't want to drive to Traverse City.
You'd think with all this record breaking snow we would at least get a snow day or two! :)
